The individuals who work there were well organized and helped me through the application process.
What I wish was different
I wish there were more local opportunities. I love working with camp reach out every March but the 45 minute to an hour drive to Brooksville can be difficult.
Advice
I would say that it's really rewarding but you need to be emotionally prepared. Camp reach out is a camp for children who recently lost a loved one and many times the stories can be painful to hear. While we want to cry and hug the kids and show empathy we have to remain strong for them to make sure they get the most out of their experience and gain the valuable coping skills.
